PTC v62 Release Thread

Thanks everyone for all your feedback on our previous builds, several bugs were identified in PTC v60 and the solutions for some have shipped, while others are on the way!

The Public Test Channel (PTC) for Quest v62 is starting to roll out soon for Meta Quest 2, Meta Quest Pro, and Meta Quest 3. 

If you're seeing an issue or bug after updating to PTC v62 jump on over to our Get Help board and search for any existing thread, if you don't find one, make a new thread. Please add the tag "PTC v62" to the thread and in the title. This way everyone can look for just PTC v62 issues too.

It's best if you can post each bug you spot in its own thread, to keep track of individual issues separately.

Share your impressions and let us know if you see any issues. Please make sure to also send in bug reports along with posting on the forums if you notice anything going wrong. 

We know it's tough when you run into a problem on a PTC build and want to thank you all again for testing out PTC and sharing your feedback! This feedback is extremely helpful to our engineering teams. We appreciate your interest and persistence in testing out the core functionality of software as we develop!

I still don't seem to be able to enroll in PTC with my Q3, and never have been able to do so.  On my phone app I always get the message that it's full.  Anyway, I look forward to hearing users experiences with PTC v62.

I have the same issue. The PTC has always shown as "full" for me in the Oculus app when I try to add my Quest 3. Was in the PTC on my old Quest 2 and would like to do the same with the 3 if possible.

Why is PTC even limited in the first place?

right, if i a user chooses to opt into beta, let them. this is why Meta releases buggy software?

That's how a lot of OS beta's are. I'm guessing they want to limit the number of headsets they could possibly brick?

which one? Apple lets you beta their stuff, Windows - they say sure why not? Meta, only 50 people and you dont even know if the 50 will really test what you need. 

I say if the user opts in, its on them. As far as bricking headsets, why is so touchy you could brick it?

jdawg46.1976 I was just replying to your comment that they should allow anyone who wants to test to join... Please don't get defensive,

callmeviktorious  i was not getting defensive, was asking which ones limit you to only a few? i know games limit open beta testing to pre order people, but what OS would limit you?

jdawg46.1976 I don't know of any OS that limits Beta's, that's why the limit is absurd. I wish I could Tag ZUCK and BOSWORTH... and yes I completely agree that their releases have been buggy as heck. They need to allow anyone who wants to test in PTC and they need to fix how updates rollout... Staggered rollouts are fine if they were released in a timely manner but the fact that an official firmware is "released" and it takes 2-3 weeks for you to get it on your headset is laughable.
